Once again, the key ingredient is glycerin. Following up a shampoo with a conditioner is a very important. My daughter has 4c hair and it is high porosity meaning it allows moisture into the hair but struggles to retain it. The conditioner step is vital for the hair to be moisturised.
Step 2 of this routine is great in this regard. You will not regret it:)
Well this was the first time that I used a conditioner on my 2 year old daughter. Well she doesn't like the fact that washing her takes longer.. lol but I have seen the difference it has made to her hair and scalp. Her hair is more shiner and has added moisture.
First of all, thanks BB for sharing the products with me and my daughter.
We have been using it since Jan and unfortunately for now, I didn't get a chance to use the new samples that I received. I can still write my review about the products and I would love to share it will all of you...
I love the conditioner - it softens Kazi's hair and makes it easier to comb - she has natural hair and she is four years old.

The Soft & Shiny Conditioner with Glycerine is a truly lovely follow up to the Shampoo. I've been using this range since it came out, so I was ecstatic to review it.
After cleaning my toddler's hair with the Soft & Shiny Shampoo after a day of exploring in the garden, I use a generous amount on his hair, work it through and leave for a little bit before rinsing. Now, please note that if you use too much on short hair, it will get messy. I would suggest use as much as your baby's hair needs, and depending on how much hair your baby has. I use a little bit more than usual when I just co-wash his hair.
AN IMPORTANT NOTE: As we do with our own natural hair, it's so important to de-tangle your baby's hair while it's wet and while there's conditioner on it to create "slip" i.e. make it easier for the comb to slide through the hair as you go.
Johnson's Soft & Shiny Conditioner creates a lovely "slip" for me and makes it so much easier to de-tangle his hair, and make his little curls pop! Please DO NOT use a thin toothed combed or baby combs on your child's natural hair? Just like ours, it'll only break or tangle the hair further. Rather use an afro comb - which I use - or a wide toothed comb to de-tangle and comb through effectively.
Did I mention the smell is absolutely amazing? And it lasts on the long after you've rinsed out. Not forgetting that Johnson's Baby Soft & Shiny has the Johnson's "No More Tears" signature stamp that we all love and trust. I've noticed that my son's hair is definitely softer and doesn't tangle as quickly as before. No more tears or moans from him while I comb through his hair.
I promised that I'd be honest to Johnson's about their product and what our babies need.
As a natural hair advocate mommy, what I'd love to see in future from Johnson's Baby is more natural oils added to their conditioner in addition to the glycerine, such as coconut, avocado or argan oil in the first 5 ingredients, and lesser chemical components. I'm happy that Johnson's has identified that baby's curly/ethnic hair is different and needs just a bit more TLC. And the more natural goodness inside the bottle, the happier the natural hair, baby and mommy :)
This product is amazing it has really strengthened my daughters hair it not longer breaks off. I will continuously use it on her as is has helped changed the quality of her hair making it extremely stronger.
This is my favorite product from the three - step. It is thick and gently conditions my baby's hair, leaving it soft and really easy to comb. The glycerin helps to add moisture to the hair , I even use it on my 11 year old too. Go get this product and your baby's fro will love it, i will definitely continue using all the three step baby products
